54 A oni javše jej, vedli ho, a uvedli do domu nejvyššího kněze. Petr pak šel za ním zdaleka.

55 A když zanítili oheň uprostřed síně a posadili se vůkol, sedl Petr mezi ně.

56 A uzřevši ho jedna děvečka, an sedí u ohně, a pilně naň pohleděvši, řekla: I tento byl s ním.

57 A on zapřel ho, řka: Ženo, neznám ho.

58 A po malé chvíli jiný, vida jej, řekl: I ty z nich jsi. Petr pak řekl: Ó člověče, nejsem.

59 A potom asi po jedné hodině jiný potvrzoval, řka: V pravdě i tento s ním byl, neb i Galilejský jest.

60 I řekl Petr: Člověče, nevím, co pravíš. A hned, když on ještě mluvil, kohout zazpíval.

61 I obrátiv se Pán, pohleděl na Petra. I rozpomenul se Petr na slovo Páně, kterak jemu byl řekl: Že prve než kohout zazpívá, třikrát mne zapříš.

62 I vyšed ven Petr, plakal hořce.

54 And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

55 and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,

56 and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, And this one was with him!

57 and he disowned him, saying, Woman, I have not known him.

58 And after a little, another having seen him, said, And thou art of them! and Peter said, Man, I am not.

59 And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;

60 and Peter said, Man, I have not known what thou sayest; and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.

61 And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;

62 and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.
